Biography

The Tears were an English rock band, formed in 2004 by ex-Suede bandmates Brett Anderson and Bernard Butler. The band was a much anticipated reunion of an acclaimed songwriting couple, and music critics praised their first concerts and their debut album, Here Come The Tears. However, this was to be their only release, as they disbanded in 2006, due to Brett Anderson moving his focus towards his solo albums (and later on, reuniting Suede without Butler), and Bernard Butler retiring from performing and starting a career as a producer and songwriter (for Duffy and Kate Nash among others).
